In 2009, the great Williams sister duo acquired minority ownership of the Miami Dolphins. They have always rooted for their favorite team. Hence, to always stay connected to their beloved team, they joined names like Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, and Jimmy Buffett. They also became the first female African-American to own a minority of the franchise. So, does this mean the 14 Grand Slam-winning duo could have owned the NFL GOAT Tom Brady?

If one may have forgotten, let’s rewind a bit to the controversy surrounding the Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay’s leading starter, Tom Brady. The NFL punished the Dolphins franchise for their tampering and tanking against Brady.

At that time, Brady was under contract with the New England Patriots and then the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So, Miami impermissibly contacted the star QB twice while he was under contract with different teams.

What Was Brewing Between Tom Brady & The Miami Dolphins?

When Tom Brady retired for 41 days in the previous off-season, many rumors surrounding the Dolphins wanting to bag California Cool as their starting quarterback and also as their minority owner rose. Because contacting an athlete who is not a free agent is illegal. A team cannot talk or reach out to the player. Or it will face severe punishments.

And that is exactly what the Miami Dolphins faced. The NFL snatched a first and third-round pick from the team. While also suspending and laying a penalty on the owner, Stephen Ross.

Also, the NFL suspended other executive members who were involved in the illegal process. The NFL Commissioner, Roger Goodell, said, “The investigators found tampering violations of unprecedented scope and severity. I know of no prior instance of a team violating the prohibition on tampering with both a head coach and star player, to the potential detriment of multiple other clubs, over a period of several years. Similarly, I know of no prior instance in which ownership was so directly involved in the violations.” 

Do the Dolphins still want Brady?

Even after the investigations and punishment levied on the authorities involved, there roamed several rumors that Tampa Tom may play for the South Florida team. Other than TB12, they wanted to lure somebody else. They had contacts with Sean Payton’s agent, Don Yee. The exchange took place without permission from the New Orleans Saints. 

It is no doubt that every team would want to acquire the seven-time Super Bowl-winning champion. Also, the joy of watching the tennis GOAT Serena and Venus Williams, and the 45-year-old work together would have been amazing!
